Flynn the Flying Squirrel is a snuggly amigurumi that is almost no-sew (except to attach the head and tail to the body). Its floppy, unstuffed body makes it the perfect lovey blanket or snuggler for little ones to cuddle and play with. This versatile pattern can also make a sugar glider by using different yarn colors. It makes a great emotional support stuffie, birthday gift, baby shower gift, Christmas holiday gift or market/craft fair product. You can even turn it into a microwavable hot pad by adding a cloth pouch of flaxseed in the body. This pattern was designed with faux fur yarn (Feels Like Bliss from Lion Brand Yarns) for a soft and furry stuffed animal. Blanket yarn or chenille velvet yarn can also be used for a plush look. The PDF pattern includes in-line progress photos to help guide you through the doll-making process.
